  1. nah i'll give it a miss had enough motor sport and sun in the last fortnight
  2. more importantly the Gobbledoc??? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJDU345zzOI
  3. is the Bruce Lynton BMW??
  4. i noticed it on the way over, it could have been doing it a while i just don't drive enough to notice (long straight roads anyway) not that fun when i went to grab a drink and the car starts to drift off the road when it should be driving straight. not the most comfortable seats for long drives
  5. usual the parts that come in for me are connected to the car (only organize shipping and ordering of whole vehicles). Most part interpreter positions are after someone who has done an apprenticeship in it or have experience.
  6. yeah that nearly 1/5th of my annual Km's and i might be heading up to QLD in the next week or so and that'll add a lot more pretty well, i flushed the oil and radiator ect before i left so i wasn't to worried. It might need a wheel alignment as it pulls to the left when the wheel is straight have to wait to i get a new job
  7. mad34 this seems to be appearing on quite a few forums,
  8. was pretty happy with the economy of my car today 608Km's out of a tank. Would have been better if the ultimate was $160+ in the middle of nowhere down side is the car is pinging due to the crappy unleaded that went into it. I think i need to flush it out and run some good stuff in there now i'm back in civilization bit sad that my 33 is my daily and i have done 26000Km's over the past 3 years and have done 2000 in the last 4 days
  9. no.... you have to wait until the pit stops to make a pass. after all if you make contact you will either get a black flag or be called a cheat by the spectators (who are the ones crying for passing) think i'll stick to watching the sportscars and sports sedans
  10. honestly not 100% sure. I have been working in stock control (ordering new vehicles from factory and organizing tints ect for the customers) and licensing (transport SA agent in dealership doing all rego related documents ect). This is pretty well much my entire working experience, unfortunately so i have no customer relation experience -- which is really hurting it seems I have looked into some apprenticeship ect but at this stage are looking for something than can help (financially) move up there
  11. got a few phone calls to some mates to make tomorrow then i will see what happens. then i'll jump on the seek ect to have a look. I have a small incoming coming in on the side to cover me for a little while but not enough to cover moving there and car payments ect.
  12. good news, Giant i saw some pics of the track after it had been cleaned up and it looked great
  13. Ok didn't realize that, I spoke to the people in Noosa because i only know a handful of people up there and want to get something happening as fast as possible
  14. 220Kw 3.8L V6, RWD 0-100 sub 6 seconds (claimed) the sedan version of the chassis will be getting a 4.5L V8 ah the ex hyundai employee in me is coming through.......better put that away
  15. ok geoff, i'll look into it after posting this up earlier i have spoken to a few people in Noosa to get the ball rolling and when i get back to Adelaide i will put a few phone calls to the people i know up on the GC. Hopefully i will be able to set something up pretty soon. I was naive / dumb enough to leave my job on the promises of the people in Melbourne and now find myself with out a job and desperately wanting a change of location. and having a quick look around the housing is much cheaper on the GC over Melbourne as well :laugh:
  16. some shocking reports on what happened to Ashley Cooper. Looks like the HANS device may have been a major part of the injuries as well as the seat breaking from the rails (which is opposite to the CAMS report). With the V8's looking at going to a silhouette formula in the next few years, hopefully they start letting some more brands in. Something like the audi Sports sedan would be great as that thing was flying at sandown on the weekend 1.08 set the new race lap record.
  17. Hey All, I'm considering moving up to the gold coast area, What are the job opportunities like for some one who doesn't have a trade? I have been working in the automotive industry ( Registration licensing and stock control for the past 4 years) I have been looking in Melbourne and have had nothing but head aches and people screwing me around. I'm looking for a change in lifestyle, as i have been pretty unhappy recently living in Adelaide.
  18. unfortunately all the support categories have new drivers and semi professional drivers (look at eth GT series only 1 profesional driver and the cars go around turn 8 with out lifting).
  19. that isn't attached to a car..... of course
  20. and we can expect FPV to have a play with that
  21. i'll pay that one, do i get extra points if i spot it in melbourne as well as adelaide?
  22. looks like we were there at the same time Dan
  23. its surprisingly smaller than what i thought it would be. I had always imagined it quite a bit larger (due to always hearing how big the motor is, the large amount of radiators ect)
  24. it will only be on display from friday the 29th to sunday the 2nd
  25. i've had that hapen tim, not the best feeling in the world, good luck finding a new job. I'm off to Melbourne tomorrow for some interviews
